A truly unique design like no other Swedish handwoven rug. Almost a rya type of rug, but better due to the lower and tighter weave. The elegant blending of greens adds depth to the overall design and appears beautifully multi-dimensional. The design features freeform stripes of red, white, yellow, even a lovely coral color which is a creative expression of the artisan. The ends of this rug features a sort of visual structure yet features the eye catching center.
This is a one-of-a-kind rug, designed by a highly skilled Swedish weaver on a wooden loom in the weaver's own home. The pattern is symmetrical yet with subtle and random differing characteristics which adds to a wholly original and casual design. Swedish rugs are known for their sophisticated color palettes featuring unexpected combinations of color and pattern.
The craft of weaving rugs has been an important cultural craft in Sweden for centuries. This rug is woven in the Tuscaft method. Swedish weavers are highly skilled and this tightly woven rug will last for many years to come and only gets better with age. This rug is reversible! It is also washable in cold water and lay flat to dry.
